DeAndre Yedlin Newcastle

Host Steve Zakuani recaps Saturday's match against Real Salt Lake and sits down with Seattle native and former Sounders defender DeAndre Yedlin to talk Newcastle, the United States national team and his puppy Simba.


At the 4:21 mark, Zakuani recaps the Saturday’s loss against Real Salt Lake.


At 16:08, Yedlin says of the U.S. not making the World Cup: “Something that’s putting a bit of a positive light on it is how good of a group we have coming up. The guys coming up might be some of the best talent we’ve ever had in the U.S. I think it makes it very exciting and it’s something that we can look forward to.”


Zakuani closes the podcast at 28:38 with his Big Three Things.
